wisdom by deceit

 Jai Sri Ram,

Supankha applauded Ravana and instigated him against Rama, in great fury she rated him in the following words, discarding all thought of your realms, and exchequer you drink and sleep without political insight,

 WEALTH DIVORCED FROM VIRTUE, NOBLE DEEDS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN OFFERED TO GOD, AND LEARNING WHICH DOES NOT BEGET WISDOM IS NOTHING BUT FRUITLESS LABOUR TO THE MAN WHO HAS GAINED SUCH WISDOM OF WEALTH, TO THE DOER OF THE NOBLE ACTS, AND TO THE STUDENT RESPECTIVELY

A recluse is quickly undone by attachments, a King by the evil council, wisdom by deceit, modesty by drinking, friendship by want of love, and man of merit by vanity, such is the maxim I have heard, 

An Enemy, a malady, fire, sin, a master and a serpent are never to be accounted trifle, so saying with profuse laments she set to weeping,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please
